l3 formed parallel to each other and spaced apart shown, and each slotis receive the contracted end of the dog I to hold the brackets inadjusted positions.

In adjusting the bracket plates, the spurs upon the upper plate arepushed down into the top of the casing, the contracted end of the doeinserted in one of the slots in the plate 13 and the spurs in the lowerplate brought into contact with the under edge of the casing. afterwhich a swinging movement of the lever l, the pintles oi which aredlll'lltllt l in the ears F, will cause the lower plate to be raised andits spurs will be drawn up into the lower edge of the casing.

lsv reason of the peculiar shape of the dog,

when the same is in the position shown in Figs. 1 and 2. with theinwardly bent portion directly underneath the pintles it will serve tohold the plates in locked position; it being" understood that the weightof the shade roll will be supported by the plate A.

What I claim to b ew is;-

An adjustable curtain pole supporting device comprising two bracketplates having spurred ends for engagement with the upper and lower edgeof a casing of a window frame. one of said plates having a series oftransverse slots therein. ln'aeket arms projeetiu i from the oppositeedges of the other plate. a dog having pintles pivotally mounted in saidbraelce't arms. one end of the do e 'hein contracted and ada itedto enga e one 5 a I of said slots and its shank portion with an inwardly bentportion adapted to contact with the tare ol the slotted plate at a location substantially underneath the pivotal points of the dog. as setforth.

in testimony whereof l hereunto allix my signature in the n'esence oftwo witnesses. l lliltll llt E. .VUOIflVUR'lll.
